Family Photos

We had some family photos done at the beginning of September.  We were unsure about Eric deploying (we still don't know anything for sure) so we wanted to get some pics of him and the girls together.  I will post some more pics in an album to the right.  

First Days of School

Both girls are in school now!!!

 

Abby is LOVING first grade!  We are still working on our homework routine.  Some days she needs some down time when she gets home, some days she jumps right in. 

 

Maddie is LOVING preschool.  She is in class with her good friend, Kennedy.  A few of the other kids from our community group also go to her preschool so she is being able to see her friends and loving it.  We have had our first sickness though....we started out the week with an ear infection.  She is on antibiotics and doing much better. 

 

Happy School Year!!!

Disney World and Update

Well, we have been back for about a week but I have just now been able to sit down and go through pictures!  I have posted a link to the right.  We spent 4 days at Disney (2 days at Magic Kindgom, 1 day at Hollywood Studios, 1 day at Animal Kingdom) then we spent one day at Sea World.  The girls had a fantastic time!!  We played hard every day so they were ready to crash each night!  They got to see lots of princesses.  We rode rides, Dumbo, Tea Cups, Its a Small World, Space Mountain.  Abby rode her first big girl roller coaster and loved it!  It was Space Mountain. 

 

Since we got home, Aunt Sara (Eric's sister), Uncle Trent and Cousin Titus came to visit for a week.  We had a great visit and played some more!  They went to the beach a couple of times, we did Open House for both girls at school, lots of playing and just hanging out. 

 

Abby will start 1st grade tomorrow.  She is super excited but a little nervous about remembering her lunch number in the lunch line.  Maddie will start preschool on Wednesday 3 days a week.  She is super excited!  We have a lot of friends from church who are going to preschool with her so she already has some friends.

 

I will post about school soon!!

Going to......

The girls are so excited!  This will be our first family vacation not going to visit family.  We have appointments at the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique and we have lunch with the Princesses!!  I will post pictures when we get back.

Our Day in Williamsburg

We had a fun day in Williamsburg with some friends!  We spent some time in Colonial Williamsburg and then went and visited our friend that is a fireman.  The girls had a great time climbing on the fire truck and getting the tour of the fire station.

Arts Camp Video

Here is the video of the girls dancing to This Little Light of Mine at dress rehearsal!  I forgot to video the performance, sorry! 

Blueberry and Blackberry Picking

 abby, why are you in the blueberry bush?

As soon as we got home from Oklahoma, we headed to the blueberry field!  We met up with some of our friends and picked blueberries and then went to Pungo Pizza for lunch (one of the girls favorites).  I have some berries that I need to start cooking with.  I did make some amazing blueberry muffins the other day.
